I agree with you, there are so many things we don't know about this picture. That is what makes it so interesting. We were just contacted last week by two experts on dead horses.... Any more ideas you can come up with are very welcome! Colleen Hi Sue,

Allegorical photo with tones of "The horse is dead...long live the Iron Horse"? How do we know the horse is dead? And why is a man formally dressed willing to soil his clothing sitting on a horse?
